Fronius Wind Speed Sensor for PV

Product description

The Fronius Wind Speed Sensor for PV is a cup anemometer designed to measure wind speed in photovoltaic solar installations. It is part of the advanced Fronius DATCOM monitoring system and provides key data that enable optimization of system performance according to actual weather conditions.

Main features

• Type: High-precision cup anemometer
• Digital output: Square wave signal: Low ≤ 0.5 V / High ≥ 3.5 V
• Measurement range: from 2.5 m/s up to >50 m/s, 1 m/s resolution
• Accuracy: ±5 % at speeds above 5 m/s
• Robust design: IP54 housing, operates from –20 °C to +60 °C
• 2 m cable: copper with terminals, UV-resistant, extendable up to 30 m

Advantages or benefits

• Allows correlation of solar production with actual weather conditions
• Facilitates diagnosis of losses due to lack of ventilation or overheating
• Compact design and easy to install in elevated and unobstructed locations
• Ideal complement for a complete solar weather station with Fronius

Purpose or applications

This sensor is especially suitable for solar systems that require advanced monitoring, such as industrial or commercial installations. It is used to integrate wind speed data into platforms like Solar.web, cross-referencing them with photovoltaic production and improving the operational efficiency of the PV system.
